3D movies get standard on Blu Ray

This LA times article explains how a new standard that has been set for 3D use on blu-ray disc should allow the format to grow in its home audience. With new movies like avatar that are done in 3D eventually becoming available.

These movies are the ones we all know about but have seen few of, the ones that require each viewer to use their own pair of “3D glasses” and ironically Thursday Sony also, “formed a partnership with RealD, a Los Angeles company whose 3-D technology is being used in nearly 5,000 movie theaters. RealD will make the glasses used with 3-D-compatible Sony sets.”

While I think this is an interesting development technologically, I am more interested in actual 3D depiction that takes place typically through projection and requires a sort of fog or special gas (which is typically contained)

This development should make for many more home movie offerings that are very entertaining for the kids in the near future.
